Does a modified muffler change gas consumption?
Certainly a modified muffler on a 2 stroke-cycle engine will affect gas consumption and power. The reason is that these engines do not have an exhaust valve to keep in the gasoline vapor until it has been fired like a 4 stroke-cycle engine has. The "2 stroke" engine relies on pressure in the tuned muffler to keep the gasoline vapor from shooting right out of the cylinder before the spark plug ignites it. With a "4 stroke" engine, there is an exhaust valve to keep the gasoline vapor in until it is ignited, and the engine isn't much bothered about muffler tuning, size, or even not having a muffler, at all.

How do you remove muffler on John Deere stx38?
I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to replace my front axle and I need to remove the muffler to get to the axle bolt. Please help. I recently replaced the front axle on my STX38 so I took off the muffler as well. The muffler's heat shield needs to come off first, I think there's just two bolts holding that in place on the front of it. If I remember correctly, there were 4 bolts total securing the muffler. There are two bolts towards the front of the muffler that connect vertically to the body of the mower, these need to be removed. If you look at the very top of the muffler where it connects to the engine you'll see another two bolts that need to be removed. I had a tough time getting these two completely out since mine were a bit rusted but they did eventually come off. Once all these bolts are removed, I had to wiggle the muffler out of the bottom of the mower. For the people doing front axle replacement - once the muffler is removed you should have access to the bolt securing the axle.
